Expansions and plans

Plan to extend Line 1

The Gwangju City Government has a plan to extend the current Line 1 eastward to Hwasun and westward to Naju. In 2009, the Presidential Committee on Balanced National Development promised to include the Line 1 extension in its '5+2 extensive economic zone' project.[5]

Planned lines

Line 2 was originally planned as a circle line, but the Gwangju City Government also considered a 'South-North type' as well. After the results of a public hearing conducted in 2019 construction started as originally planned, with the first section of the line being scheduled to open in 2023. Phases 2 and 3 are scheduled to open in 2024 and 2025, respectively.[6]
